Some More Nichols & May -- Tribute Edition

When Mike Nichols got the AFI Lifetime Achievement Award, I’ve previously posted the hilarious speech that his longtime partner at the start of his career Elaine May gave.  (If you haven’t seen it, I highly recommend watching it here.)   At the same event, his longtime close friend Norah Ephron (who wrote and directed such films as You’ve Got Mail, Sleepless in Seattle and Julie & Julia) gave a speech that is almost equally a joy, though far more brutal – and as with May’s, some of the fun is watching Nichols’ reaction of laughter – he’s one of the great laughers -- and utter embarrassment.)
